NetBSD localhost 8.0_RC1 NetBSD 8.0_RC1 (GENERIC.201804191727Z) amd64
>Description:
I couldn't boot into NetBSD after installation. I would see the NetBSD MBR message, but then get No Operating System Found message on the next line.
To fix, I had to dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rwd0d to get it to work.
No error was presented in installation, it all appeared to work fine. dd method I found via googling.
I used the entire disk for NetBSD.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install NetBSD 8.0_RC1 over Debian Linux?
>Fix:
Properly wipeout the MBR on installation?
